Hi Rainbow_2:
This debate about bloatware goes back to 2015 when Mozilla starting integrating services like Firefox Hello video chat and the Pocket read-it-later app in the Firefox browser - see the ghacks.net article How to Remove Firefox Hello and Pocket From Firefox. Mozilla finally relented and discontinued support for Firefox Hello in FF49 but now that they've acquired Read It Later, Inc. (the parent company of Pocket) it sounds like Pocket is here to stay.

Hi lmacri,
Unfortunately I cannot express my opinion since Firefox is not on my machine but I guess what you mention must be rather disappointing.
Cheers.
